Help with _IsPressed only active when in a certain field box

[donhorn20]

I am trying to work between two separate applications where if a control box in application 1 is selected, via the {END} button, it will send the contents over to application 2. The contents it is capturing is a phone number.

My problem though is with my winactive call outs. If I am not on the phone number box and am within a different box within the application and click {END}, it will copy the phone number text and send it over. I only want the {END} key to work when the cursor is in the "EDIT1" box, otherwise function as normal. Here is the window information along with my current piece of code. Could someone please help me on this? I believe my issue is with the active windows but am just drawing blanks.

Hi,

-Get the control coords: WinGetPos+ControlGetPos

-When the mouse is over the control enable the _IsPressed function: MouseGetPos

Br, FireFox.

At what stage in my code would I be implementing this, before _IsPressed or after? Still learning how to write code properly, any help would be greatly appriciated. Also, if I understand this correctly, the suggested code would eliminate the potential problem if the phone number is in a different box wouldn't it? See attachement of what I mean.

The helpfile is great for that.

$iMyInput = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 20, 20)

$aWgp = WinGetPos($hGUI)
$aControlPos = ControlGetPos($hGUI, "", $iMyInput)

While GUIGetMsg() <> $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
    Sleep(10)

    $aMgp = MouseGetPos()

    If $aMgp[0] >= $aWgp[0] + $_iCXDLGFRAME + $aControlPos[0] And $aMgp[0] <= $aWgp[0] + $aControlPos[0] + $aControlPos[2] _

FireFox, I appriciate the sample code and help provided so far. I am just not seeing how your sample code is works. I tried placing some code in the _IsPressed(... section but just not seeing it.

Just to let you know, I have been reading the help files over and over before even posting to the forum. I just can't seem to grasp the proper statements thus the reason I am asking for more help. Whats wierd is the INFO box tool says that the Phone field box and Mobile field box are the same Control ClassID's. Would I even need to worry about the mouse position if the class ID's are the same? See info box information below. I just want it to work where when I place the cursor inside that field box and click END that the copy action is performed. If the cursor is in any other box besides the EDIT1 then the END button will function as normal.

What about this?

$hWnd = WinGetHandle("Call Logging - [Work Group - 1 of 1]")

$aWgp = WinGetPos($hWnd)
$aControlPos = ControlGetPos($hWnd, "", "[CLASS:Edit; INSTANCE:1]")

Br, FireFox.

Thanks for the suggested code, but I am still not understanding how I can make it so that when I click the keyboard END key that it will function like the END key should. However if I am within these two field boxes (phone or mobile) it will perform the copying of text? The code you provided still allows for the END button to produce results even if I am in a different program. I understand this is going to probably rely on a If/Then statement with the active windows being present or not, but just can't seem to get it.

If WinActive($hWnd) > 0 Then

EndIf

Look into ControlGetFocus, and only send over when it's your expected classnn for the window.
